Description

本発明は、パチンコ店等の遊技場に設置して使用されるパチンコ機等の遊技機に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a gaming machine such as a pachinko machine that is installed and used in a game hall such as a pachinko parlor.

遊技場に設置される遊技機の一つとしてパチンコ機が挙げられる。このパチンコ機には、遊技媒体となるパチンコ球を受容する受け皿が設けられている。この受け皿には、パチンコ機内部に組み込まれた発射装置へとパチンコ球を導く通路が設けられており、受け皿に受容されたパチンコ球は、この通路を介して自動的に発射装置へと誘導される。なお、発射装置へと誘導されたパチンコ球は、遊技者による操作ハンドルの操作により作動する発射装置によって遊技領域の上方へと打ち出された後に、遊技領域に設けられた障害釘によって弾かれながら遊技領域内を流下していく。そして、遊技領域に設けられた通常入賞口や、始動入賞口等に入賞した場合に、遊技者に対する賞球の払い出しが受け皿に行われる。 One of the gaming machines installed in the amusement hall is a pachinko machine. This pachinko machine is provided with a saucer for receiving a pachinko ball as a game medium. The saucer is provided with a passage for guiding the pachinko ball to the launching device incorporated in the pachinko machine, and the pachinko ball received in the saucer is automatically guided to the launching device through the passage. The Note that the pachinko ball guided to the launching device is launched by the launching device that is operated by the operation of the operation handle by the player, and then played by the obstacle nail provided in the game region. Flow down the area. Then, when a winning is made in a normal winning opening provided in the game area, a starting winning opening, or the like, a payout of prize balls to the player is performed on the tray.

例えば始動入賞口に入賞すると、「大当たり」状態へ移行するか否かの抽選が行われ、この抽選に当選すると「大当たり」状態へと移行するようになっている。この「大当たり」状態では、通常では閉じているアタッカが開き、所定個数のパチンコ球が入賞するか所定時間経過すると一端閉じるという動作を所定回数行うので、より多くの入賞を得ることができるようになる。このため、「大当たり」状態に移行すると、多くの賞球の払い出しが行われ、受け皿に数多くのパチンコ球が受容されることになる。 For example, when winning at the start winning opening, a lottery is performed as to whether or not to shift to the “big hit” state, and when winning the lottery, the lottery is shifted to the “big hit” state. In this “hit” state, the normally closed attacker opens, and a predetermined number of pachinko balls wins or closes once after a predetermined time has elapsed, so that a greater number of winnings can be obtained. Become. For this reason, when shifting to the “hit” state, a lot of prize balls are paid out, and a large number of pachinko balls are received in the tray.

このようなパチンコ機の中には、１つの受け皿を備えたパチンコ機が提供されている。このようなパチンコ機の場合、受け皿に受容されたパチンコ球を外部の貯留箱へと排出する場合、発射装置へ導く通路内に開口を設けることが考えられる。この場合、上記開口を通路内に設ける他に、この開口を遮蔽する遮蔽部材と、この遮蔽部材を閉じ位置と開き位置との間で移動させる操作部材を設ける必要がある。なお、遊技を行って終了したときには、操作部材を操作することで上記通路内のパチンコ球及び受け皿に受容されたパチンコ球を外部の貯留箱へと排出することができ便利である。しかしながら、受け皿にパチンコ球が一杯になり、外部の貯留箱へパチンコ球を排出する場合には、発射装置へ導かれるパチンコ球がなくなるため、例えば「大当たり」状態の場合には、「大当たり」状態にも関わらず、遊技を中断せざるを得ないという問題があり、入賞を得る機会を失いことになり、遊技者の意欲を低減させるものとなる。 Among such pachinko machines, pachinko machines having a single saucer are provided. In the case of such a pachinko machine, when the pachinko ball received in the tray is discharged to an external storage box, it is conceivable to provide an opening in the passage leading to the launching device. In this case, in addition to providing the opening in the passage, it is necessary to provide a shielding member that shields the opening and an operation member that moves the shielding member between a closed position and an open position. When the game is completed, the pachinko balls in the passage and the pachinko balls received in the receiving tray can be conveniently discharged by operating the operation member. However, when the pachinko ball is full in the saucer and the pachinko ball is discharged to the external storage box, there is no pachinko ball to be guided to the launching device. For example, in the “big hit” state, the “big hit” state Nevertheless, there is a problem that the game must be interrupted, and the opportunity to win a prize is lost, which reduces the player's motivation.

このような問題を解決するため、通路内に設けられた開口（第２開口）の他に、受け皿の底面に開口（第１開口）を設けたパチンコ機が提供されている。このパチンコ機では、上記開口のそれぞれを遮蔽する遮蔽部材が設けられる他に、受け皿の外部に２つの操作部材が設けられている。例えば一方の操作部材を操作すると、第１開口を遮蔽する第１遮蔽部材が第１開口から退避して、受け皿に受容されたパチンコ球を排出する。また、他方の操作部材を操作すると、第１開口を遮蔽する第１遮蔽部材と、第２開口を遮蔽する第２遮蔽部材とが、それぞれの開口から退避して、通路内にあるパチンコ球及び受け皿に受容されたパチンコ球のそれぞれが排出される。これにより、遊技を行っている間に受け皿に受容されたパチンコ球が一杯になっても、遊技を中断せずに外部に設けられた貯留箱へ排出することが可能となる。 In order to solve such a problem, a pachinko machine is provided in which an opening (first opening) is provided on the bottom surface of the tray in addition to the opening (second opening) provided in the passage. In this pachinko machine, in addition to a shielding member that shields each of the openings, two operation members are provided outside the tray. For example, when one of the operation members is operated, the first shielding member that shields the first opening is retracted from the first opening, and the pachinko balls received in the tray are discharged. Further, when the other operation member is operated, the first shielding member that shields the first opening and the second shielding member that shields the second opening are retracted from the respective openings, and the pachinko ball in the passage and Each pachinko ball received in the saucer is discharged. As a result, even when the pachinko ball received in the tray becomes full during the game, the game can be discharged to a storage box provided outside without interruption.

しかしながら、２つの操作部材を設けた場合、これら操作部材の機能が分かりにくいため、例えば受け皿に受容されたパチンコ球を排出したい場合に、パチンコ球を通路内からも排出してしまう等の、遊技者が意図しないパチンコ球の排出を行ってしまうという問題がある。このため、操作部材の近傍に操作部材の機能を表示したとしても、受け皿や操作部材がパチンコ機の下方に設けられており、遊技者はその表示が見づらいという問題もある。 However, when two operation members are provided, the functions of these operation members are difficult to understand. For example, when it is desired to discharge the pachinko balls received in the tray, the pachinko balls are also discharged from the passage. There is a problem in that pachinko spheres are unintentionally discharged by a person. For this reason, even if the function of the operation member is displayed in the vicinity of the operation member, the tray and the operation member are provided below the pachinko machine, and there is a problem that it is difficult for the player to see the display.

操作部材３８は、上記第１遮蔽部材３６及び第２遮蔽部材３７を回動させ、第１開口２５のみを、或いは第１開口２５及び第２開口３１を開口する部材である。なお、この操作部材３８は、下部扉５の開口５ａから露呈される操作部３８ａを備えており、この操作部３８ａを操作すると、後述する連動部材３９が連動し、第１遮蔽部材３６及び第２遮蔽部材３７が遮蔽位置から退避位置に向けて回動する。なお、この操作部３８ａは、第１開口２５及び第２開口３１が閉じる第１位置（図１１参照）に保持され、第１開口２５を開口する第２位置（図１４参照）、又は第１開口２５及び第２開口３１をそれぞれ開口する第３位置（図１６参照）のいずれかに向けてスライド操作される。 The operation member 38 is a member that rotates the first shielding member 36 and the second shielding member 37 to open only the first opening 25 or the first opening 25 and the second opening 31. The operation member 38 includes an operation portion 38a exposed from the opening 5a of the lower door 5. When the operation portion 38a is operated, an interlocking member 39 described later is interlocked, and the first shielding member 36 and the first shielding member 36 are operated. 2 The shielding member 37 rotates from the shielding position toward the retracted position. In addition, this operation part 38a is hold | maintained in the 1st position (refer FIG. 11) which the 1st opening 25 and the 2nd opening 31 close, and the 2nd position (refer FIG. 14) which opens the 1st opening 25, or 1st A sliding operation is performed toward any one of the third positions (see FIG. 16) where the opening 25 and the second opening 31 are opened.

連動部材（アーム部材）３９は、略Ｔ字形状から設けられており、上述した操作部材３８が組み付けられる。この連動部材３９は、押圧部（第１の押圧部）３９ａ及び押圧片（第２の押圧部）３９ｂを備えている。操作部材３８に設けられた操作部３８ａのスライド操作によって、連動部材３９がスライドすると、略方形状の押圧部３９ａの先端が第１遮蔽部材３６に設けられた突出片３６ｄと当接し、突出片３６ｄを押圧し、第１遮蔽部材を回動させる（図１２中Ｅ方向）。また、押圧片３９ｂは、操作部３８ａを第２位置から第３位置へとスライドする途中で、第２遮蔽部材３７に設けられたピン３７ｆと当接する。なお、押圧部３９ｂとピン３７ｆとの隙間Ｌ２と、押圧部３９ａの先端と突出片３６ｄとの隙間Ｌ１とは、Ｌ２＞Ｌ１となるように配置される。なお、隙間Ｌ１は、第１位置から第２位置までの距離Ｍ（図１１参照）よりも短く設定される。また、隙間Ｌ２は第１位置から第２位置までの距離Ｍよりは長く、第１位置から第３位置までの距離Ｎ（図１１参照）よりも短く設定される。このような構成とすることで、操作部３８ａの操作における誤作動を防止することができる。また、連動部材３９の押圧部３９ａは、操作部３８ａの第２位置への移動する過程で当接するようにしたが、これに限定する必要はなく、第１位置において第１遮蔽部材３９の突出片３６ｄと当接していてもよい。 The interlocking member (arm member) 39 is provided in a substantially T shape, and the operation member 38 described above is assembled thereto. The interlocking member 39 includes a pressing portion (first pressing portion) 39a and a pressing piece (second pressing portion) 39b. When the interlocking member 39 is slid by the slide operation of the operation portion 38a provided on the operation member 38, the tip of the substantially rectangular pressing portion 39a abuts on the protruding piece 36d provided on the first shielding member 36, and the protruding piece 36d is pressed and the 1st shielding member is rotated (E direction in FIG. 12). Further, the pressing piece 39b comes into contact with a pin 37f provided on the second shielding member 37 in the middle of sliding the operation portion 38a from the second position to the third position. The gap L2 between the pressing part 39b and the pin 37f and the gap L1 between the tip of the pressing part 39a and the protruding piece 36d are arranged so that L2> L1. The gap L1 is set shorter than the distance M (see FIG. 11) from the first position to the second position. The gap L2 is set longer than the distance M from the first position to the second position and shorter than the distance N from the first position to the third position (see FIG. 11). With such a configuration, it is possible to prevent a malfunction in the operation of the operation unit 38a. In addition, the pressing portion 39a of the interlocking member 39 is in contact with the operation portion 38a in the process of moving to the second position. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the first shielding member 39 protrudes at the first position. It may be in contact with the piece 36d.

これにより、操作部材３８の操作部３８ａを第１位置から第２位置に向けてスライド操作すると、連動部材３９がスライドし、まず押圧部３９ａと第１遮蔽部材３６の突出片３６ｄとが当接する。さらに操作部３８ａを第２位置に向けてスライド操作すると、押圧部３９ａが第１遮蔽部材３６の突出片３６ｄを押圧するので、第１遮蔽部材３６がピン４５を回動軸として回動する（図１３参照）。そして、第２位置から第３位置に向けて操作部３８ａをスライドさせると、連動部材３９の押圧片３９ｂが第２遮蔽部材３７のピン３７ｆと当接し、ピン３７ｆを押圧する。これにより、操作部３８ａを第３位置までスライドさせると、第２遮蔽部材３７がピン４８を回動軸として回動する（図１５参照）。 Accordingly, when the operation portion 38a of the operation member 38 is slid from the first position toward the second position, the interlocking member 39 slides, and the pressing portion 39a and the protruding piece 36d of the first shielding member 36 first come into contact with each other. . When the operating portion 38a is further slid toward the second position, the pressing portion 39a presses the protruding piece 36d of the first shielding member 36, so that the first shielding member 36 rotates about the pin 45 as a rotation axis ( (See FIG. 13). When the operation portion 38a is slid from the second position toward the third position, the pressing piece 39b of the interlocking member 39 comes into contact with the pin 37f of the second shielding member 37 and presses the pin 37f. Accordingly, when the operation unit 38a is slid to the third position, the second shielding member 37 rotates about the pin 48 as a rotation axis (see FIG. 15).

保持部材４０は、操作部材３８の操作部３８ａの操作によって連動する連動部材３９のスライド方向を規制する部材である。この保持部材４０の上面には、２つの規制片４０ａ，４０ｂと、突接片４０ｃが設けられる。なお、２つの規制片４０ａ，４０ｂは、それぞれ略直方形状をしており、連動部材３９の幅を開けて設けられている。この２つの規制片４０ａ，４０ｂの間に形成される隙間４０ｅに連動部材３９の押圧部３９ａが挿通されることで、連動部材３９のスライド方向が規制される。突出片４０ｃは、断面が円弧状から設けられている。この突出片４０ｃには、上述した第１遮蔽部材３６の遮蔽部３６ａの下面に設けられた回動防止片３６ｆが当接する。 The holding member 40 is a member that regulates the sliding direction of the interlocking member 39 that is interlocked by the operation of the operation portion 38 a of the operation member 38. On the upper surface of the holding member 40, two regulating pieces 40a and 40b and a projecting piece 40c are provided. Note that the two restricting pieces 40a and 40b have a substantially rectangular shape, and are provided with a wider width of the interlocking member 39. By inserting the pressing portion 39a of the interlocking member 39 into the gap 40e formed between the two restricting pieces 40a and 40b, the sliding direction of the interlocking member 39 is restricted. The projecting piece 40c is provided with an arc shape in cross section. The protrusions 40c are in contact with the rotation preventing pieces 36f provided on the lower surface of the shielding portion 36a of the first shielding member 36 described above.

次に、このような球抜出し装置を本実施形態の作用について説明する。図４に示すように、遊技を行う際に、貸し出された遊技球５１を例えば供給皿２０の第１受容面２０ａから供給すると、第１受容面２０ａに受容された遊技球５１が第１受容面２０ａ上を転動する。第１受容面２０ａは、第２受容面２０ｂに向けて傾斜しているから、遊技球５１は第２受容面２０ｂに向けて第１受容面２０ａ上を転動する。そして、第１受容面２０ａと第２受容面２０ｂとの境界まで転動すると、その境界に設けられた段差２０ｃから第２受容面２０ｂに落下する。 Next, the operation of this embodiment for such a ball extraction device will be described. As shown in FIG. 4, when a game ball 51 that has been rented is supplied from the first receiving surface 20a of the supply tray 20, for example, when the game is played, the game ball 51 received on the first receiving surface 20a is first received. Roll on the surface 20a. Since the first receiving surface 20a is inclined toward the second receiving surface 20b, the game ball 51 rolls on the first receiving surface 20a toward the second receiving surface 20b. And when it rolls to the boundary of the 1st receiving surface 20a and the 2nd receiving surface 20b, it will fall to the 2nd receiving surface 20b from the level | step difference 20c provided in the boundary.

第２受容面２０ｂに遊技球がないときには、第２受容面２０ｂに連なって設けられた誘導通路３０に向けて転動し、誘導通路３０の内部に導かれる。なお、誘導通路３０は、遊技球５１の直径Ｓに対して、Ｓ＜Ｔ＜２Ｓとなる幅Ｔを有するから、誘導通路３０の内部に導かれた遊技球５１は、略ライン状に並んだ状態となる。 When there is no game ball on the second receiving surface 20b, it rolls toward the guide passage 30 provided continuously to the second receiving surface 20b and is guided into the guide passage 30. Since the guide passage 30 has a width T such that S <T <2S with respect to the diameter S of the game ball 51, the game balls 51 guided into the guide passage 30 are arranged in a substantially line shape. It becomes a state.

図８〜図１０に示すように、供給皿２０に遊技球５１を供給した後に、遊技者が操作ハンドル２１を操作すると、球送り装置５５のソレノイド（図示せず）が作動して、カム５６が図８中Ａ方向に所定の角度回動する。これを受けて、誘導通路３０の下流側にある遊技球５１がカム５６に設けられた受け部５６ａに落下する。その後、ソレノイドへの給電が停止すると、カム５６が図９中Ｂ方向へと回動するので、受け部５６ａにある遊技球５１が発射装置９に向けて（図１０中Ｃ方向に）送り出す。このソレノイドの作動及び作動停止を一定の間隔で行うことで、誘導通路３０の内部の遊技球５１が、１個ずつ球送り装置５５から発射装置９に送り出される。なお、ソレノイドの作動及び作動停止の間に発射装置９による遊技球５１の打ち出しが行われる。 As shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, when the player operates the operation handle 21 after supplying the game ball 51 to the supply tray 20, a solenoid (not shown) of the ball feeder 55 is activated, and the cam 56. Is rotated by a predetermined angle in the direction A in FIG. In response to this, the game ball 51 on the downstream side of the guide passage 30 falls to the receiving portion 56 a provided in the cam 56. Thereafter, when the power supply to the solenoid is stopped, the cam 56 rotates in the direction B in FIG. 9, so that the game ball 51 in the receiving portion 56a is sent toward the launching device 9 (in the direction C in FIG. 10). By performing activation and deactivation of the solenoid at regular intervals, the game balls 51 inside the guide passage 30 are sent from the ball feeding device 55 to the launching device 9 one by one. Note that the launching device 9 launches the game ball 51 during the operation and stoppage of the solenoid.

発射装置９によって打ち出された遊技球５１が遊技領域１０を流下していく過程で、通常入賞口１４に入賞すると、図示しない検出センサによって遊技球５１の通常入賞口１４への入賞が検出され、内部に組み込まれた払出し装置が作動する。これにより、賞球として遊技球５１が、払出し口２０ｄから所定個数払い出される。図４に示すように、払出し口２０ｄから払い出された遊技球５１は、第１受容面２０ａ上を転動した後に、第２受容面２０ｂに受容される。 When the game ball 51 launched by the launching device 9 flows down the game area 10 and wins the normal winning slot 14, the detection sensor (not shown) detects the winning of the game ball 51 to the normal winning slot 14, The dispensing device incorporated inside operates. As a result, a predetermined number of game balls 51 are paid out from the payout port 20d as prize balls. As shown in FIG. 4, the game ball 51 paid out from the payout port 20d rolls on the first receiving surface 20a and is then received by the second receiving surface 20b.

一方、遊技領域１０を流下する遊技球５１が始動入賞口１３に入賞すると、「大当たり」状態へと移行するか否かの移行抽選が行われる。そして、図柄表示装置１７では、移行抽選に基づいて決定された図柄の変動パターンに基づいた図柄の変動表示を行う。そして、変動パターンが終了すると、予め内部で決定された図柄の停止表示を行って、遊技者に移行抽選の結果を報知する。なお、移行抽選の結果が当たりとなる場合には、図柄表示装置１７では例えば「７−７−７」のように同一の図柄が停止表示され、「大当たり」状態へと移行する。 On the other hand, when the game ball 51 flowing down the game area 10 wins the start winning opening 13, a transfer lottery is performed as to whether or not to shift to the “big hit” state. Then, the symbol display device 17 performs symbol variation display based on the symbol variation pattern determined based on the transfer lottery. Then, when the variation pattern is completed, a symbol that is determined in advance is stopped and the result of the transfer lottery is notified to the player. When the result of the transfer lottery is a win, the symbol display device 17 stops displaying the same symbol, for example “7-7-7”, and shifts to the “big hit” state.

「大当たり」状態へ移行するとアタッカ１５が開口し、遊技領域１０を流下する遊技球５１がアタッカ１５に入賞しやすくなる。このアタッカ１５は所定個数の遊技球５１が入賞するか、所定時間経過した場合に一旦閉じる。一回のアタッカの開口動作時に、アタッカ１５の内部に設けられた図示しないＶゾーン（連続役物作動口）に遊技球５１が入賞すると、アタッカ１５が再び開口するようになっている。そして、アタッカ１５による開口動作が、所定回数に到達した時点で「大当たり」状態が終了する。これにより、「大当たり」状態では、賞球としての遊技球５１を大量に得ることが可能となる。これにより、図１１に示すように、賞球として払い出された遊技球５１によって供給皿２０は一杯になるので、遊技者は操作部３８ａを第１位置から第２位置に向けて（図１２中Ｄ方向）にスライドさせる。 When the “big hit” state is entered, the attacker 15 opens, and the game ball 51 flowing down the game area 10 can easily win the attacker 15. The attacker 15 is temporarily closed when a predetermined number of game balls 51 have won or a predetermined time has elapsed. During a single opening operation of the attacker, when the game ball 51 wins a V zone (continuous accessory operating port) (not shown) provided inside the attacker 15, the attacker 15 opens again. Then, when the opening operation by the attacker 15 reaches a predetermined number of times, the “big hit” state ends. Thereby, in the “hit” state, it becomes possible to obtain a large amount of game balls 51 as prize balls. As a result, as shown in FIG. 11, the supply tray 20 is filled with the game balls 51 paid out as prize balls, so that the player points the operation unit 38a from the first position to the second position (FIG. 12). Slide in the middle D direction).

図１２に示すように、操作部３８ａを基準位置から第１位置に向けてスライドさせると、操作部材３８とともに連動部材３９が図中Ｄ方向にスライドする。このスライドにより、連動部材３９の押圧部３９ａの先端が第１遮蔽部材３６の突出片３６ｄと当接する。連動部材３９の押圧部３９ａの先端と第１遮蔽部材３６の突出片３６ｄとの当接は、操作部３８ａが第２位置に到達する前に行われるから、第２位置に向けてスライドさせる操作部３８ａに連動する連動部材３９のスライドによって、その押圧部３９ａによる第１遮蔽部材３６の突出片３６ｄの押圧が行われる。これにより、第１遮蔽部材３６が巻きバネ４６の付勢に抗して図中Ｅ方向に回動する。 As shown in FIG. 12, when the operation portion 38a is slid from the reference position toward the first position, the interlocking member 39 is slid in the direction D in the drawing together with the operation member 38. By this sliding, the tip of the pressing portion 39 a of the interlocking member 39 comes into contact with the protruding piece 36 d of the first shielding member 36. Since the contact between the distal end of the pressing portion 39a of the interlocking member 39 and the protruding piece 36d of the first shielding member 36 is performed before the operation portion 38a reaches the second position, an operation of sliding toward the second position is performed. By the slide of the interlocking member 39 interlocked with the portion 38a, the pressing piece 39d presses the protruding piece 36d of the first shielding member 36. As a result, the first shielding member 36 rotates in the direction E in the figure against the urging of the winding spring 46.

図１３及び図１４に示すように、第１遮蔽部材３６が回動して第１開口２５が開口すると、第２受容面２０ｂにて受容された遊技球５１が第１開口２５から第１排出通路５７に流下する。そして、第１排出通路５７の下流に設けられた排出口５８から、例えば外部の貯留箱（図示せず）に排出される。第２受容面２０ｂにて受容された遊技球５１が第１開口２５を介して第１排出通路５７から排出されることによって、第１受容面２０ａにて受容されている遊技球５１が第２受容面２０ｂへと転動していく。そして、供給皿２０に受容された遊技球５１の量が遊技者の意図する量になった場合に、遊技者は操作部材３８の操作部３８から手を離す。操作部３８から手を離すと、第１遮蔽部材３６に組み付けらた巻きバネ４６の付勢によって、第１遮蔽部材３６が図１３中Ｆ方向回動する。第１遮蔽部材３６の図１３中Ｆ方向への回動によって、連動部材３９の押圧部３９ａが突出片３６ｄに押圧され、図１３中Ｇ方向へとスライドする。これに合わせて、操作部材３８の操作部３８ａが第２位置から第１位置へと移動する。これにより、第１遮蔽部材３６の遮蔽部３６ａが第１開口２５を遮蔽するので、供給皿２０からの一時的な遊技球５１の抜出しが終了する。 As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, when the first shielding member 36 rotates and the first opening 25 opens, the game ball 51 received by the second receiving surface 20 b is discharged from the first opening 25 through the first discharge. It flows down to the passage 57. And it discharges to the external storage box (not shown) from the discharge port 58 provided in the downstream of the 1st discharge channel 57, for example. The game ball 51 received by the second receiving surface 20b is discharged from the first discharge passage 57 through the first opening 25, so that the game ball 51 received by the first receiving surface 20a is second. Roll to the receiving surface 20b. Then, when the amount of the game ball 51 received in the supply tray 20 reaches the amount intended by the player, the player releases the hand from the operation portion 38 of the operation member 38. When the hand is released from the operation unit 38, the first shielding member 36 rotates in the direction F in FIG. 13 by the urging force of the winding spring 46 assembled to the first shielding member 36. By the rotation of the first shielding member 36 in the F direction in FIG. 13, the pressing portion 39 a of the interlocking member 39 is pressed by the protruding piece 36 d and slides in the G direction in FIG. 13. In accordance with this, the operation portion 38a of the operation member 38 moves from the second position to the first position. Thereby, since the shielding part 36a of the 1st shielding member 36 shields the 1st opening 25, extraction of the temporary game ball 51 from the supply tray 20 is complete | finished.

なお、このようなパチンコ機２で、上記「大当たり」状態に連続して移行する場合も同様に、操作部３８ａを操作して遊技球５１の抜出しを行いながら、遊技を行う。これにより、操作部３８ａを第２位置までスライドさせて遊技球５１の抜き出しを行いながら、遊技を行うことが可能となる。 It should be noted that with such a pachinko machine 2, the game is performed while operating the operation unit 38 a and withdrawing the game ball 51 in the same manner when the game is continuously shifted to the “big hit” state. As a result, it is possible to play a game while sliding the operation portion 38a to the second position and extracting the game ball 51.

また、供給皿２０に遊技球５１が受容された状態で、パチンコ機２での遊技を終了させる場合には、遊技者は第１位置にある操作部３８ａを、図１４に示す第３位置まで（図中Ｄ方向に）スライドさせる。なお、第１位置と第３位置との間に第２位置があるので、操作部３８ａを第３位置までスライドさせる途中で、第２位置を通過することになる。この際、上述したように、第２位置までスライドさせると第１遮蔽部材３６が回動し第１開口２５が開口するので、供給皿２０の第２受容面２０ｂにて受容された遊技球５１が第１開口２５を介して第１排出通路５７へと流下していく。 When the game ball 51 is received in the supply tray 20 and the game on the pachinko machine 2 is ended, the player moves the operation unit 38a in the first position to the third position shown in FIG. Slide (in the direction D in the figure). Since the second position is between the first position and the third position, the second position is passed while the operation unit 38a is slid to the third position. At this time, as described above, when the slide is made to the second position, the first shielding member 36 is rotated and the first opening 25 is opened, so that the game ball 51 received by the second receiving surface 20b of the supply tray 20 is opened. Flows down to the first discharge passage 57 through the first opening 25.

遊技者は、さらに操作部３８ａを第２位置から第３位置へとスライドさせる。なお、第２位置から第３位置に操作部３８ａをスライドさせる途中で、連動部材３９の押圧片３９ｂが第２遮蔽部材３７に設けられたピン３７ｆと当接する。操作部３８ａを第３位置まで移動させると、連動部材３９の押圧片３９ｂが第３遮蔽部材３７のピン３７ｆを押圧するので、第２遮蔽部材３７が図１５中Ｉ方向に回動する。これにより、第２開口３１が開口する。 The player further slides the operation unit 38a from the second position to the third position. Note that the pressing piece 39 b of the interlocking member 39 contacts the pin 37 f provided on the second shielding member 37 while the operation unit 38 a is slid from the second position to the third position. When the operating portion 38a is moved to the third position, the pressing piece 39b of the interlocking member 39 presses the pin 37f of the third shielding member 37, so that the second shielding member 37 rotates in the direction I in FIG. Thereby, the 2nd opening 31 opens.

図１５及び図１６に示すように、第２遮蔽部材３７の回動により第２開口３１が開口すると、誘導通路３０の内部にある遊技球５１が第２開口３１へと落下し、第２排出通路５８へと落下する。そして、第２排出通路５８を転動する遊技球５１は、第１排出経路５７へと導かれた後に、排出口５９から外部へと排出される。なお、遊技者は、供給皿２０に受容された遊技球５１が全て第１及び第２排出通路５７，５８から払い出されるまで、操作部３８ａを第３位置に保持する。遊技球５１が全て排出されたことを受けて、遊技者が操作部３８ａから手を離すと、巻きバネ４６の付勢力によって第１遮蔽部材３６が図１５中Ｆ方向に回動する。同様に、巻きバネ４９の付勢力によって第２遮蔽部材３７が図１５中Ｈ方向に回動する。この際、第１遮蔽部材３６の突出片３６ｄによって連動部材３９の押圧部３９ａが押圧され、また、第２遮蔽部材３７のピン３７ｆによって連動部材３９の押圧片３９ｂが押圧されることにより、連動部材３９が図１５中Ｇ方向へとスライドする。これにより、操作部材３８の操作部３８ａが第３位置から第１位置へとスライドする。 As shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, when the second opening 31 is opened by the rotation of the second shielding member 37, the game ball 51 inside the guide passage 30 falls into the second opening 31, and the second discharge is performed. Drop into the passage 58. The game ball 51 rolling in the second discharge passage 58 is discharged to the outside from the discharge port 59 after being guided to the first discharge path 57. The player holds the operation portion 38a in the third position until all the game balls 51 received in the supply tray 20 are paid out from the first and second discharge passages 57 and 58. When the player releases his / her hand from the operation unit 38a after the game ball 51 is completely discharged, the first shielding member 36 is rotated in the direction F in FIG. Similarly, the second shielding member 37 is rotated in the H direction in FIG. 15 by the urging force of the winding spring 49. At this time, the pressing portion 39a of the interlocking member 39 is pressed by the protruding piece 36d of the first shielding member 36, and the pressing piece 39b of the interlocking member 39 is pressed by the pin 37f of the second shielding member 37, thereby interlocking. The member 39 slides in the direction G in FIG. Thereby, the operation part 38a of the operation member 38 slides from the third position to the first position.

なお、操作部３８ａを第１位置から第３位置までスライドさせる場合には、第１位置から第２位置までは、第１遮蔽部材３６を遮蔽位置に付勢する巻きバネ４６の付勢力のみなので軽いが、第１位置から第２位置までのスライドは、第１遮蔽部材３６を図１５中Ｆ方向に付勢する巻きバネ４６の付勢力の他に、第２遮蔽部材３７を図１５中Ｈ方向に向けて付勢する巻きバネ４９の付勢力がかかるので重くなる。これにより、操作時の力のかかり具合によって、遊技球５１の抜き出し処理の形態が異なることが遊技者に分かるから、例えば供給皿２０からの遊技球５１の抜き出し処理を行いたい場合に、誤って誘導通路３０の内部にある遊技球を抜き出すことがなくなる。また、抜き出し処理を行う際に操作される部材が１つであるから、部品を少なくするとともに、組み立て時の作業工数を減らすことができる。 When the operation unit 38a is slid from the first position to the third position, only the urging force of the winding spring 46 that urges the first shielding member 36 to the shielding position is provided from the first position to the second position. The slide from the first position to the second position is light, but in addition to the biasing force of the winding spring 46 that biases the first shielding member 36 in the direction F in FIG. Since the biasing force of the winding spring 49 biasing in the direction is applied, it becomes heavy. Accordingly, since the player knows that the form of the process of extracting the game ball 51 differs depending on how much force is applied during operation, for example, when the process of extracting the game ball 51 from the supply tray 20 is desired, The game ball inside the guide passage 30 is not extracted. In addition, since only one member is operated when performing the extraction process, it is possible to reduce the number of parts and the number of work steps during assembly.

本実施形態では、横方向にスライドする操作部の例を取り上げたが、これに限定する必要はなく、縦方向にスライドする操作部を設けてもよい。また、押圧ボタンの押圧量によって球抜き処理を行えるようにしてもよい。この場合、第１開口のみを開口させる第１の押し込み量と、第１開口及び第２開口を開口させる第２の押し込み量（第１の押し込み量＜第２の押し込み量）とを設けるようにする。また、この他に、ジョグダイヤルや開放レバー等を設け、これらの回転量によって、第１開口のみを開口させる、又は第１及び第２開口のそれぞれを開口させるようにすることも可能である。 In this embodiment, an example of the operation unit that slides in the horizontal direction has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and an operation unit that slides in the vertical direction may be provided. Moreover, you may enable it to perform a ball removal process by the amount of press of a press button. In this case, a first push amount for opening only the first opening and a second push amount for opening the first opening and the second opening (first push amount <second push amount) are provided. To do. In addition to this, it is also possible to provide a jog dial, an opening lever, etc., and to open only the first opening or to open the first and second openings depending on the amount of rotation thereof.

また、本実施形態の球抜出し装置の構成は一例であり、供給皿や、下部扉の形状等を考慮して、ソレノイド及びモータを用いたリンク機構や、モータにより駆動するギヤ機構等の電気的な機構を用いた球抜出し装置等を設けることも可能である。 In addition, the configuration of the ball extraction device of the present embodiment is an example, and the electrical mechanism such as a link mechanism using a solenoid and a motor, a gear mechanism driven by a motor, or the like is taken into consideration in consideration of the shape of the supply tray and the lower door. It is also possible to provide a ball extraction device using a simple mechanism.

本実施形態では、巻きバネ４９のバネ定数を巻きバネ４６のバネ定数よりも大きくなるようにし、操作部を第２位置から第３位置へスライドさせる際に重くすることで、第１位置から第２位置へとスライドさせる際に誤って第３位置までスライドさせる、所謂誤操作を防止するようにしたが、この他に、操作部のスライド操作時に、第２位置に位置したことを認識させるようにしてもよい。 In the present embodiment, the spring constant of the winding spring 49 is made larger than the spring constant of the winding spring 46, and the operation unit is made heavy when sliding from the second position to the third position, so that the first position is changed from the first position. The so-called erroneous operation of accidentally sliding to the third position when sliding to the second position is prevented, but in addition to this, when the operation unit is slid, it is made to recognize that it is located at the second position. May be.

例えば、図１７に示すように、供給皿７０及び操作ハンドル７１が設けられた下部扉７２の、操作部７３を露呈する開口７４の第２位置から第３位置の範囲で、開口７４に連なったＵ字状の突設片７５を設ける。この突設片７５は、操作部７３の周壁面の一部を遮蔽する高さを有している。なお、図示はしないが、この供給皿には、遊技の際に用いられる操作ボタン、又は音量調節用のボタン、或いは光量調節用ボタンを設けてもよい。また、装飾用のレンズカバーを設け、遊技中の演出において、内部に配置されたＬＥＤ等の照明装置によって、このレンズカバーを照明してもよい。 For example, as shown in FIG. 17, the lower door 72 provided with the supply tray 70 and the operation handle 71 is connected to the opening 74 in the range from the second position to the third position of the opening 74 exposing the operation unit 73. A U-shaped protruding piece 75 is provided. The protruding piece 75 has a height that shields a part of the peripheral wall surface of the operation unit 73. Although not shown, the supply tray may be provided with an operation button, a volume adjustment button, or a light amount adjustment button used in the game. In addition, a decorative lens cover may be provided, and the lens cover may be illuminated by an illumination device such as an LED disposed in the interior during the game.

図１８〜図２０に示すように、遊技を行っている際に、供給皿７０が払い出された遊技球で一杯になり、一時的に払い出された遊技球を排出する場合には、例えば親指で操作部７３の側壁面を図中Ｍ方向に押圧し、操作部７３を第１位置から第２位置へとスライドさせる。押圧される操作部７３が第２位置までスライドされる（図１９参照）と、操作部７３の上面及び底面の一部が、開口７４に連なって設けられた突設片７５によって被覆される。また、操作部７３を操作する親指が、上記突設片７５の端部７５ａ，７５ｂに引っ掛かる。これにより、操作部７３が第２位置までスライドされたことを遊技者が認識することができる。 As shown in FIGS. 18 to 20, when playing a game, when the supply tray 70 is filled with paid out game balls, and the game balls that are temporarily paid out are discharged, for example, The side wall surface of the operation unit 73 is pressed with the thumb in the M direction in the figure, and the operation unit 73 is slid from the first position to the second position. When the operation portion 73 to be pressed is slid to the second position (see FIG. 19), a part of the upper surface and the bottom surface of the operation portion 73 is covered with a protruding piece 75 provided continuously to the opening 74. Further, the thumb that operates the operation unit 73 is caught on the end portions 75 a and 75 b of the protruding piece 75. Thereby, the player can recognize that the operation unit 73 has been slid to the second position.

なお、遊技を終了し、供給皿に受容された遊技球を排出する場合には、操作部７３を第１位置から第３位置までスライドさせる。このとき、遊技者は、第１位置から第２位置までは上記操作で行う。その後、例えば親指で操作する場合には、親指を操作部７３の側壁面から前面にずらし（図２０参照）、操作部７３を押圧しながら第２位置から第３位置までスライドさせる。そして、操作部をスライドさせると、突設片の前面７５ｃに親指が摺接するので、第２位置から第３位置に向けてスライドさせていることが遊技者が認識することができる。第３位置まで操作部７３をスライドさせると、供給皿７０及び誘導通路にある遊技球が全て排出される。 When the game is finished and the game ball received in the supply tray is discharged, the operation unit 73 is slid from the first position to the third position. At this time, the player performs the above operation from the first position to the second position. Thereafter, for example, when operating with the thumb, the thumb is shifted from the side wall surface of the operation unit 73 to the front surface (see FIG. 20), and the operation unit 73 is pressed and slid from the second position to the third position. When the operation unit is slid, the thumb is in sliding contact with the front surface 75c of the protruding piece, so that the player can recognize that it is slid from the second position toward the third position. When the operation unit 73 is slid to the third position, all of the game balls in the supply tray 70 and the guide passage are discharged.

操作部７３を第１位置から第３位置まで操作部７３をスライドさせる場合、初めから操作部７３の前面を押圧しながらスライドさせることも可能である。この場合、操作部７３を第２位置からさらにスライドさせると、親指に突設片７５の前面７５ｃが摺接するので、遊技者に対して操作部の位置を認識させることができる。 When the operation unit 73 is slid from the first position to the third position, the operation unit 73 can be slid while pressing the front surface of the operation unit 73 from the beginning. In this case, when the operation unit 73 is further slid from the second position, the front surface 75c of the protruding piece 75 is in sliding contact with the thumb, so that the player can recognize the position of the operation unit.

なお、上記突設片は、第２位置に操作部が位置したことを遊技者が認識できればよく、開口の周縁のうち、第２位置に対応する箇所に突設片を設けるようにしてもよい。また、上記突設片は、本実施形態で説明した払出し装置と組み合わせることで、より確実に遊技者の誤操作を防止することが可能となる。 The protruding piece only needs to be recognized by the player that the operation unit is located at the second position, and the protruding piece may be provided at a position corresponding to the second position in the periphery of the opening. . In addition, by combining the protruding piece with the payout device described in the present embodiment, it is possible to more reliably prevent the player from operating incorrectly.
